Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Postmark 1170 RapidColor used for?
Full-color envelope, napkin, and package printing with HP PageWide printheads at 1200 x 1200 dpi. The Standard Pro runs envelopes and mailers, the Napkin Pro runs custom napkins, and the Package Pro runs boxes and corrugated.
What ink does the Postmark 1170 use and does it fade?
HP pigment aqueous ink, which resists fading, scratching, and water, so prints survive outdoor mail and handled packaging.
Does the Postmark 1170 print variable data?
Yes. Every system ships with Xitron Navigator RIP on the bundled workstation for variable data, multi-page PDF imposition, and job queuing, with no separate software to buy.
What machine prints full color on napkins?
A purpose-built napkin press like the 1170 Napkin Pro. Desktop printers cannot feed soft napkin stock; the 1170 feeds cocktail and luncheon napkins and prints on demand, which is how print shops sell custom napkins same day.
Can I see the Postmark 1170 print my own envelopes or napkins?
Yes. Mailtech demos the 1170 on your artwork and your stock and models the per-piece ink cost from the real job. Mailtech is the Postmark dealer for Long Island, New York, and the tri-state area.
